England are back in action for the first time since the crushing penalty shoot-out loss to Italy in the final of Euro 2020.
They continue qualification for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, with Gareth Southgate’s side built to peak in the years ahead.
It’s been a comfortable start for the Three Lions, who have three wins from three games in Group I.
But a trip to Hungary could prove to be the trickiest match of the group stage, with Marco Rossi’s side impressing at home in Budapest with draws against world champions France and Germany, while Portugal required a dramatic late finish inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo to earn three points.
Here’s everything you need to know about the match.
When is it?
The match is tonight, Thursday 2 September, kicking off at 7.45pm.

Prediction
Hungary gave an excellent account of themselves in Euro 2020's group of death, narrowly missing out on a place in the knockout stages. Dominik Szoboszlai missed the tournament but will provide a constant threat and like England, Marco Rossi's side are unbeaten in Group I. Still, they face a test to maintain that record. Expect a narrow England win, like those we saw during the summer. Hungary 0-1 England.
